Writing about technology for BoingBoing and a variety of print publications for nearly twenty years, I’ve spent a vast quantity of time scouting out the very latest, the very coolest and the very best of what’s out there, and translating those discoveries into concise and clear tips for my readers…. There are so many things you can do online today beyond paying your bills and searching for good prices on digital cameras, but there’s no single resource that a.) makes readers aware of the possibilities and b) culls out only the most effective tools.

I had the pleasure of contributing a small bit to the ‘Tips from My Favorite Bloggers’ chapter, too. While much of the book’s material might not be new to lifehackers in-the-know, it would make a great gift for less savvy friends and family.

I have been learning about good CSS practices, Ajax & JavaScript but I realy wanted to create my own graphics and build clean, pleasing websites.

Using Lynda.com I am learning Photoshop and graphic design principles. Sitepoint has always been one of my favorite sites for technical books and I have just started the new “The Principle of Beautiful Web Design”, which is a great read.

I will be adding a complete review to my blog once I finish it, but I have to say that Jason Beaird has done a great job.
